Not really that's the problem, its already bad enough that there isn't HLTV, meaning that there will be a lot of people who won't watch it and since most of the streams are in other languages (russians/polish etc), most people get stuck with a stream more directed to the entertain than to cast per se.

Oh so just because our stream is more directed to entertaining, without the high knowledge of the game, is better to let them watch russian streams where even if the casters have high knowledge of the game (if they have), but where like 3/4 ppl watching do not understand a word apart from "da", than to try and make something happen and stream in a "good enough" english, with a caster that gives all to bring these games.
I think that we are all in the same cooking pot here, we try our best to keep this game at float, as you at hltv.org do the same, is there any reason to bring sarcasm on the table and BM GF for trying to help the community?
Maybe talk to someone else and try to put another english stream out there, than to BM us for doing this!

I'm not "bad mannering", just criticizing on how techlabs does one the most interesting online/lan tournament in years and leave everything to be decided in the last minute, providing bad media coverage.
I'm helping a Portuguese website to contact the techlab staff to see if they can stream the tourney in Portuguese.
PS: I prefer to listen "da" than to "ba bam" every time someone kills someone.

As I said, there are other streams for those who do not want to hear rakhim.
The thing is that I expected more from a hltv.org admin than to go bm a fellow site that does the same job as hltv.org, just beacause he does not like the way the caster does his job.
And with this I rest my case.

dont talk about rahim like that
Where did I insulted him or said anything wrong about him?
I only said his streams where only to entertainment people, playing minesweep, showing MEME's, saying "ba bam", "rocket jump", "I love towers" etc every single time, that's a good entertainer, people love him for his ways of streaming, certainly not for his casting skills, yet he always gets +5000 people watching him, so he has a pretty big fan base.
My point there was that not everyone likes his genre of streaming and the organization hosting the cup should have done their homework in advance.

well theres not many streamers in english, Joe and Rahim are probably most popular and since it isnt a ESL event we have to watch rahim, better than nothing
